Product Description

MEK1 is an activator and kinase for MAP and ERK kinases. It is a serine/threonine kinase essential to the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway which is involved in a multitude of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, gene activation, and development. MEK1 displays 85% identity with MEK2. Although MEK1 and MEK2 have been found to be functionally similar, they may serve non-redundant functions. Both are required for cellular proliferation and may play a role in tumorigenesis.

Production & Epitope

Antibody was affinity purified using an epitope specific to MEK1 immobilized on solid support.

The epitope recognized by A302-140A maps to a region between residue 343 and 393 of human MAPK/ERK kinase 1 (Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1) using the numbering given in entry NP_002746.1 (GeneID 5604).

Immunoglobulin concentration was determined using Beer’s Law where 1mg/mL IgG has an A280 of 1.4.

Applications

All western blot analysis is performed using 5% Milk-TBST for blocking and as antibody diluent. Primary antibody is incubated overnight.

Western blots of cell lysates are performed using Goat anti-Rabbit IgG Heavy and Light Chain Antibody (A120-101P).

Immunohistochemistry (IHC)1:500 - 1:2000. Epitope retrieval with citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended for FFPE tissue sections.
Western Blot (WB)1:2000 - 1:10,000
